Chapter 55: The Fall of the Wako (continued)

When he heard that as long as he was willing to lead the way, he was rewarded with five taels of silver. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

As soon as the captive Wako heard that there was a bounty, he immediately abandoned his companion and argued that he should take the adult to the Wako's base.

Huang Wu picked out a few Japanese who knew Chinese and asked them to lead the way at the bow of the boat.

Near the isolated island of the Japanese Invaders, the Zheng family navy did not venture to the island.

Late at night, a few scouts were sent to escort the Japanese and lead the way, and the party quietly went to the island in a small boat to investigate the situation.

At the end of the day, the scout returned, bringing with him the details of the island.

This unknown island is not large, about ten square kilometers, and it is verdant.

Almost all the pirates on the island went out into the woods and cut down trees with all the tools they could find.

Late at night, the gang was still cutting down trees and making rafts, and there were no sentinels.

Listening to the scout's report, Huang Wu said to Lin Xishan: "Commander-in-chief, look at this posture, these gangs of robbers want to escape!" ”

"Hmm!"

Lin Xishan nodded.

Huang Wu said, "Don't hesitate, let's fight, commander-in-chief!" ”

"In this case, this time our Beiyang and East China Sea Fleets will jointly fight to eradicate this gang of pirates!" Lin Xishan made up his mind and said.

With Lin Xishan's order, six former general warships and eighteen lock ships on the sea were concentrated, and the artillery was pushed out of the window.

All the sixteen-pound and twelve-pound guns on the ship were dismantled and prepared to be sent to shore.

After the arrangement, Wang Zhiwei, the brigade commander of the Marine Corps, reported to Lin Xishan and Huang Wu excitedly: "Report to the commander-in-chief, Commander Huang, everything is ready to fire at any time, please instruct!" ”

At that moment, Lin Xishan waved his hand and shouted: "Fire!" “

Hearing Lin Xishan's order to open artillery, Wang Zhiwei immediately shouted: "According to the first plan, all artillery, open fire!" Fire! Fire! ”

The gunners on the battleship had already adjusted the angle of the shelling according to the news that the scouts had returned, and the muzzles of the guns were pointed at the concentration of the Japanese pirates.

This one received the order to open fire, and the thirty-two-pounder gun was the first to fire.

Soon, shells flew out of the chamber and into the sky with a tearing sound.

After a salvo, the gunners immediately pulled the gun back into place, cleared it, loaded it, and immediately a salvo was fired.

The cannonballs streaked across the sky, a hot fiery red, and slammed into the top of the Wako's head.

After a day of cutting down trees, the widow was physically and mentally exhausted after a hard day's work, and faintly heard the sound of tearing cloth in the sky.

They turned their heads to look at the sky, looking at the black dots in the sky that were getting bigger and bigger, and the eyes of the original Mu Na suddenly became frightened.

A widow opened his mouth wide and lost his voice.

"Cannonballs!"

Before the would-be servant could finish shouting, a series of thunderous thunderbolts rang out as the shells fell.

The meteors in the sky set the day, and the sky was still reflected in a brilliant and enchanting light, as if it were setting off fireworks, just as beautiful.

Hordes of shells smashed down, down, and down one after another, scattering, smashing, and stunning the dense formation of the would-be pirates, and completely smashing them to death.

Hordes of devils were blown away and destroyed by the shells, and the stumps and flesh looked even more terrifying and disgusting.

The lucky devil was directly killed by the Zheng family's artillery, and the most unlucky were the Japanese who entered the woods, and the green trees became an obvious target for the obvious artillery crew.

Trees were constantly being hit and overturned by shells, and even the devils with the woods were unlucky.

The broken wooden blocks, the collapsed big wood, I don't know how many devils were crushed and killed.

Countless pirates thrust the broken shrapnel and wooden blocks into the arteries, spurting blood and falling to the ground convulsing and struggling to die.

The devils were frightened in the artillery fire, and the devils who were lucky enough not to be killed knew that the woods had become the most dangerous place, and they didn't know who ran away with a scream first, and the living devils fled from the woods with their heads in their hands, and the smart ones ran towards the beach, and the stupid ones ran directly to the other side with their legs in a loop.

The earth is trembling, and the hearts of the devils are trembling.

Okamura Ninji, Terauchi Shouichi, and Tada Jun were drinking sake in the wooden house, discussing how to compensate the Manchus for their losses after returning this time.

My gang was deceived by the fucking bastards of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and they were completely tricked into it!

Okamura Ninji blushed and shouted that the Manchus would compensate him for the loss of one million taels of silver.

Terauchi Shouichi and Tada Jun were also spitting out wine, and they also wanted a million taels of compensation, otherwise they would take people to the north to rob them.

When he was shouting loudly, he heard the loud sound of shells exploding, and the drunkenness in his mind immediately woke up.

Listening to the continuous sound of artillery fire, Okamura Ninji quickly judged that this was the effect that could only be produced by hundreds of heavy artillery.

Okamura Ninji and the others immediately realized that they were wrong, completely wrong.

It's ridiculous how ignorant and arrogant he is, and he even wants to challenge Zheng Jiajun and want to make a fortune in China.

I am afraid that the strength of the Zheng family army alone in Huaxia is more than the strength of the entire Fusang.

The most ridiculous thing is that he is bent on going to the chassis robbery ruled by the Zheng family's army.

To use a common saying in China, Lao Tzu is simply stupider than a pig!

It is useless to regret at this time.

Okamura Ninji picked up the katana and shouted, "Rush out, or our gang will die here!" ”

Hearing Okamura Ninji's shout, Terauchi Shouichi and Tada Jun also reacted, and at this time, they hurriedly escaped on a raft first.

Okamura Ninji, Terauchi Shouichi, and Tada Jun, with a few of their henchmen, hurried to park the newly built raft beach.

Fleeing to the beach, he saw countless pirates engaged in a bloody battle to grab the twenty rafts that had already been built.

Seeing that the Japanese were blocking their way to escape, Okamura Ninji, Terauchi Shouichi, and Tada Toshito immediately ordered their subordinates to move, wielding swords and killing more than 100 companions, before they opened a bloody path and robbed five or six rafts.

Picking up the improvised oars, Okamura Ninji, Terauchi Shouichi, and Tada Jun rowed out desperately, wanting to take advantage of the fact that the Zheng family navy would focus all their attention on the isolated island and take the opportunity to slip away.

Lin Xishan and Huang Wu stood on the boat armor, holding glasses and watching the situation on the island.

Seeing that the artillery had almost plowed the isolated island, and the devils suffered heavy casualties under the artillery fire, they knew that the resistance of the devils had been completely crushed.

At this time, there are no more robbers and heaps of the isolated islands.

All of them were like headless flies, panicked and running around.

Lin Xishan raised a hand and shouted: "You can stop the fire, and if you fight again, it will be a waste of shells!" ”

Hearing the order, the gunners stopped shelling, and a trace of white smoke rose from the hot muzzle.

The trumpet sounded, and the soldiers of the Marine Corps began the landing in small wooden boats. (To be continued.) )
